Basson, Mr LJ to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
(a) Why has his department not furnished the National Treasury with the required paperwork to approve the appointment of a certain law firm (name furnished) to conduct the forensic investigation into allegations of corruption and maladministration in his department, (b) who is responsible for providing such paperwork to the National Treasury and (c) by what date will the specified paperwork be sent to the National Treasury?
Reply:
(a) The Honorable member is advised to note that the process for the appointment of Werksman was handled by the former employee, who was the then Acting Director-General, Mr Sifiso Mkhize alone. The Legal Services advised against the manner in which Werksman was appointed and for that reason could not participate in the appointment process. Since there is no handover report of Mr Mkhize on this matter, it will be difficult for the current Acting Director-General to provide the required responses.
(b) As indicated above, Mr Mkhize as the then Acting Director-General was expected to request the approval of any deviation from or report the financial irregularity to the National Treasury.
(c) Falls away.

Kohler, Ms D to ask the Minister of Public Works
(a) What number of buildings in each province does his department rent from a certain person (name furnished), (b) what are the names of the departments for which the buildings are rented in each province, (c) what is the rental cost of each specified building for each specified department in each province and (d) what number of buildings in each province has his department bought through or from the specified person?
Reply:
The Department of Public Works, in line with Government prescripts procures leases from individuals or companies in accordance with their registered trading name or company registration.
According to the Departmental records/ data sources, the Department does not have a supplier which is registered as Roux Shabangu, therefore the Department does not lease any property from a supplier, as registered in the supplier database, called Roux Shabangu. Perhaps the Honourable Member is aware of the trading name, we can then check in our databases in order to provide the information that is required.

Mente-Nkuna, Ms NV to ask the Minister of Communications
What (a) number of deadlines has her department missed in respect of the migration to digital broadcasting and (b) is the current deadline for migration?
Reply:
I have been advised by the department as follows:
a) Gazette No 3600 of 14 December 2012, Digital Migration Regulations, Paragraph 3 (1) states that “the date for the commencement of dual illumination period as well as the date for the final switch-off of the analogue signal will be published by the Minister in the Gazette”. The Minister is yet to set the deadline based on the revised delivery model and plan.
b) The Department has revised the delivery model which has since been approved by Cabinet. Although Cabinet has approved July 2020 as the date for analogue switch off, the Minister will monitor progress and after consultation with the Cabinet, gazette the date based on the progress made.
In line with the digital migration regulations, Minister will announce final switch off of the analogue signal in the Gazette.

Robertson, Mr K to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
(1) Whether the Bushbuckridge Local Municipality in Mpumalanga followed the necessary supply chain management processes in designating land for use by a certain company (name furnished); if not, why not; (2) whether the specified municipality complied with all applicable environmental impact legislation before designating land for the use of the specified company; if not, why not; (3) whether the specified municipality rezoned the designated land for agricultural, commercial and residential purposes; if not, by what date will the municipality rezone the land; if so, (a) what are the relevant details and (b) how did the municipality rezone the designated land; (4) will he furnish Mr K P Robertson with a copy of the municipality’s by-law adopted regarding the alienation of municipal and state-owned land and property; (5) (a) for what period is the specified company scheduled to invest in the municipality, (b) what land usage has the municipality designated for the initial stages of the project, (c) what does the municipality envisage to be the final usage of the land and (d) by when does the municipality envisage the land usage to be at maximum usage?NW3613E
Reply:
(1) During 2016, the municipality was approached by Africa Sino Projects, which is the Chinese Investment Group for different investment projects within the municipality including, inter alia, the Rice Planting Project, Agro-Processing Hub and property development projects. Emanating from this initiative, the Council of the Bushbuckridge Local Municipality took a Resolution in support of this initiative.
The proposed sites are registered in the name of the Government of South Africa, which the Minister of the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR) is the custodian. There are procedures to be followed to aquire the land owned by this Department. Thus the Council of Bushbuckridge Local Municipality under resolution (f) in Annexure A, resolved that DRDLR be engaged for the state land release.
The Local Government: Municipal Finance Management Act, no 56 of 2003 (MFMA) and the Supply Chain Management Policy of Bushbuckridge Local Municipality, deal with the disposal of capital assets of the Municipality which is not the case in this matter. As stated earlier, the sites identified for these projects, though falling within the jurisdiction of the Bushbuckridge Local Municipality, are not owned by the Municipality; hence, the need to engage with DRDLR to avail the land in question.
The affected land has not been transfered to Africa Sino Projects and all the neccesary processes and procedures to aquire these parcels of land from the registered owner in terms of the relevant legislative framework will be followed.
(2) The municipality has in 2014 adopted/approved the Bushbuckridge Land Use Management By-Law, which deals with the proceses and procedures to follow all land use and land development matters within the municipality. In terms of this by-law, prior to any development in the municipality, owners are required to submit town planning applications to the municipality for approval. This process include, inter alia, the Environmental Impact Studies, Traffic Impact Studies, Geotechnical Studies and Engineering Services Reports and approvals or recommendations by relevant departments. For Environmental Impact Assessment approvals (EIA), the Provincial Department of Agriculture, Rural Development, Land Reform and Environmental Affairs (DARDLEA) is the responsible authority in this regard.
Once the land in question has been made available by DRDLR, the application will be subjected to the provisions mentioned above which include Environmental Impact Studies if required.
(3) If the land is made available and there is a need to rezone the affected sites to allow for the proposed use, the said by-law provides procedures and processes for rezoning of the sites. At the moment the land is not yet aquired from the relevant Department and, therefore, the developer or the municiplaty does not have a loca-standi to submit such an application. There is a need to aquire the land from DRDLR prior to the rezoning process.
(4) The Municipality is guided by legislation: Municipal Finance Management Act, no 56 of 2003 (MFMA) and the Supply Chain Management Policy of Bushbuckridge Local Municipality for disposal of capital assets of the Municipality. State land properties, which is the case in this matter, would follow processes and procedures of DRDLR in terms of the disposal. Thus the Council of Bushbuckridge Local Municipality has granted its support for the initiative as required in terms of such procedures, and it was resolved that the DRDLR be engaged for the release of the land in question.
(5) (a)The project is still on a feasibility study stage. Questions (a) to (d) will be responded to after the feasibility study has been concluded; no tangible timeframes have been set yet.
Thank you

Groenewald, Dr PJ to ask the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services
Whether his department, in collaboration with the National Prosecuting Authority, intends prosecuting cases referred by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission for further investigation and possible prosecution; if so, (a) how many cases, (b) on which dates will the specified cases begin and (c) who are the accused in each case; (2) if such prosecutions fully comply with the provisions of section 9 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996; (3) whether he will make a statement about the matter?
Reply:
The investigation of cases emanating from the Truth & Reconciliation Commission (TRC) is the responsibility of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI) of the South African Police Service (SAPS). The DPCI has been conducting such investigations since 2011. The investigations are guided by the Priority Crimes Litigation Unit (PCLU) of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA). When investigations in individual cases are concluded, the PCLU is requested to make a decision whether or not to prosecute. It is neither the policy of the DPCI nor the NPA to comment on ongoing investigations and consequently information regarding cases under investigation cannot be supplied before decisions whether or not to prosecute are made.
The NPA, however, can confirm that a decision has been taken to prosecute four former Security Branch members for the murder of the deceased cases in 1983 and another former Security Branch member for the murder of Ahmed Timol in 1971. Both the DPCI and the NPA are under a constitutional obligation to perform their powers without fear, favour or prejudice. Decisions to prosecute are informed by the NPA Policy, which has been issued in terms of section 179 of the Constitution. These mechanisms ensure that there are no selective prosecutions. If an individual accused is aggrieved by a decision to prosecute him/her, he/she may approach a High Court for relief.

Breytenbach, Adv G to ask the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services
What number of gang-related cases (a) went to court and (b) ended in a successful conviction in each province (i) in the (aa) 2014-15, (bb) 2015-16, (cc) 2016-17 and (dd) 2017-18 financial years and (ii) since 1 April 2018?
Reply:
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has informed me that the NPA does not keep statistics per crime type. However, to the extent that particular crimes were attributable to gang activity, the NPA keeps statistical information regarding the implementation of the crimes reported under the Prevention of Organised Crime Act (POCA) since the inception of dedicated organised crime prosecution components in Deputy Public Prosecutions (DPP) divisions. Section 9 of POCA creates specific offences for gang related crimes. However, certain offences such as drug trafficking, murder, attempted murder, intimidation, assault, and robbery are directly related to gang activities and gang membership. The statistics provided therefore include such cases, where it was identified that they were gang related.
The information tabulated below is therefore provided per province and financial year where such cases existed/were recorded. The rest of the provinces do not have such cases.

Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
Whether he will call for an enquiry into the alleged incompetence of the Edenvale Fire Department while responding to a fire at a factory, including but not limited to (a) why firefighters were waiting outside the premises while the fire raged and spread to other factories, (b) the reasons why one fire engine did not have any water in its tank while it took excessive time for the crew of the second fire engine to find a fire hydrant, (c) why it took the fire crew 20 minutes to set up their equipment once they arrived on the premises and (d) why only one hose was used to extinguish the fire; if not, why not; (1.2) Whether any norms and standards were transgressed while responding to the fire; if so, which norms and standards? NW3325E
Reply:
The information requested by the Honourable Member was obtained from the National Disaster Management Centre (NDMC) in the City of Ekurhuleni (CoE). The response to the question and its sub-components by the CoE is outlined below.
a) Why firefighters were waiting outside the premises while the fire raged and spread to other factories?
On arrival, Firefighters conducted a scene size-up and realised that the gates were locked hence forcible entry tools had to be gathered. Prior to utilizing forcible entry tools, Firefighters further realised that the perimeter fence was electrified and the current was still alive. In terms of section 8 of the Fire Brigade Services Act, 1987 (Act No 99 of 1987) (FBSA), a member of a service of a controlling authority, including a Chief Fire Officer, may, whenever he/she regards it necessary or expedient to perform his/her functions (i) Close any road or street and (ii) Enter or break and enter any premises and (iii) Damage, destroy or pull down any property. Thus, while Firefighters are empowered to forcible enter any premises, in this case, they had to engage the Security Officer / Guard to alert an Electrician to come and isolate the power supply. It is important to note that in many incidents of this nature globally, many lives of Firefighters are lost due to inadequate consideration of safety factors such as dealing with electrified perimeter fences. Firefighters are trained to save lives but this should be done in a manner that does not comprise their safety. Thus, Firefighters had to wait for the safety signal from an Electrician before firefighting operations could start safely.
b) The reasons why one fire engine did not have any water in its tank while it took excessive time for the crew of the second fire engine to find a fire hydrant?
It is important to note that upon arrival, a defensive attack mode was initiated immediately with the water from the engine tank. No industrial or rescue fire engines respond to the scene without water. The standard operational procedure is that, for each shift change, the on-coming shift checks the resources for operational readiness. Fire engines and water tanks are regularly topped up to their maximum. Fire engines differ in sizes as per the manufacturing specifications. Typically, they range from about 800 litres capacity to about 15 000 litres depending on the individual size. The rescue tenders and major industrial fire pumpers that were mainly used on the day, ranges from 2 200 litres and 3 500 litres respectively and those are the primary responding pumps to the scene. The scene was complemented by backup pumps/fire engines/ water tankers from the surrounding stations. As per local operational preparedness and standards, Bedfordview and Primrose fire stations, operating in the same district as Edenvale fire station, both arrived on the scene with major pumpers to re-enforce firefighters from numbers and equipment`s perspective.
Water tank capacity of the major industrial pumper as per American National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards, which are globally accepted standards utilised by Fire Services, dictate that it (industrial pumper) (Pictures 1 and 3) should carry about 3500 litres of water in transit. Discharge pressure of about eight to ten (8-10) bars through a single orifice of 64 mm diameter means that the tanks will be empty in less than five minutes and if two discharge hoses are connected, it means that the tank will be empty in less than three minutes. This is the reason why members of the public think that fire engines always arrive on scene with empty tanks, which is not the case. The municipality, for illustrative purposes, has attached pictures of the industrial fire pumper and the hydraulic platform that were utilised in this incident as outlined below:
Picture 1: Industrial Fire Pumper
Picture 2: Water Tanker and Hydraulic Platform
Picture 3: Industrial Fire Pumper
In line with the globally accepted standards and practices, the municipality also deployed specialised vehicle in the form of a Hydraulic Platform Fire Engine (Picture 2) to be on standby at the scene for utilisation if required. It is important to note that although the hydraulic platform does not carry water as per its specifications, its main purpose is to pump water to different heights supplied via other fire engines and to rescue the trapped occupants in high rise buildings. Water should be relayed either from the fire hydrant or from the water tankers through its inlets valves and boosted via the water channel running under the ladder to the required height. This was the same hydraulic platform that was utilised in the Johannesburg Bank of Lisbon structural fire on 05 September 2018. In the case of Edenvale, this appliance was not utilised as the building which was on fire was not a high-rise building. It was dispatched for safety reasons in case its use would be required.
With regard to why it took excessive time for the second fire engine to find a fire hydrant, it is important to note that the first arriving pump from Edenvale Fire station, identified the fire hydrant and immediately connected the water supply hoses to the fire engine. The street fire hydrant was fully functional (Picture 4). The secondary back-up pumps that arrived on the scene parked strategically on the opposite side and managed to identify the fire hydrant inside the premises after access was gained through the gates but unfortunately that hydrant was non-functional (Picture 5). The firefighters opted for another street fire hydrant which was a few metres away from the fire engine. Fortunately, water pressure from that hydrant was excellent and they managed to couple several hoses from it to the fire engine for sustainable supply.
Picture 4: Functional street fire hydrant used on the day
Picture 5: Internal Non-functional Fire Hydrant
It is imperative for the owners to ensure the full functionality of installed fire-fighting equipment including fire hydrants in their properties which must be checked by a qualified service provider annually.
c) Why it took the fire crew 20 minutes to set up their equipment once they arrived on the premises
As alluded to the above, the first arriving pump from Edenvale Fire station identified a functional street fire hydrant and immediately connected it to the fire engine. The secondary back-up pumps that arrived on the scene, parked strategically on the opposite side and managed to identify the fire hydrant inside the premises after the gates were opened but unfortunately this hydrant was not functional. This means that the attack plan had to be changed as the secondary fire hydrant was identified down the street, a few metres away from the secondary fire engine. Accordingly, four 30 metre hoses had to be run-out to facilitate the objective. Thus, the non-functional fire hydrant in the premises coupled with the electrified perimeter fence which had to be isolated by an Electrician as outlined above delayed firefighting efforts.
(d) Why only one hose was used to extinguish the fire; if not, why not?
The first arriving pump, established an attack line as per operational standards for exposure protection and subsequently direct offensive firefighting is put in place to extinguish the blaze. Operational sectorisation is imperative in terms of pumps placement. Fire-fighting from all four cardinal points was initiated as the situation dictated. Fire engines were strategically placed to be able to protect the exposed buildings and to extinguish the structures that were already burning. Major industrial pumpers and rescue pumpers can directly discharge water through four orifices (discharges). However, that does not include the multiple dividing equipment used. In terms of the scene expansion, more resources arrived on the scene and more attack lines (fire hoses) were used from different fire engines.
1.2 Whether any norms and standards were transgressed while responding to the fire; if so, which norms and standards?
No norms and standards were transgressed on scene from the operational point of view. Standard Operating Procedures were followed for command and control of the incident. Thus, there is no need for the Minister to institute an enquiry regarding the response of the municipality to this fire incident.
1. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
- 1.1 The importance of firefighter safety on the line of duty
The NDMC is concerned about the safety of firefighters especially during firefighting operations. The term line of duty refers to (a) Being at the scene of an alarm, whether a fire or non-fire incident, (b) Responding to or returning from an alarm, (c) Participating in other fire services duties such as training, maintenance, public education, inspection, investigation, and (d) Being on call or stand-by for assignment at a location other than at the firefighter’s home or place of business. The death of three firefighters in the Bank of Lisbon fire in central Johannesburg highlighted the occupational dangers faced by firefighters during firefighting operations. It is important to note that, in line with global standards, firefighters can and must only fight fires if it is safe to do so. Thus, the safety of firefighters is primary and cannot be compromised under any circumstances. The dangers posed by the electrified perimeter fence to the safety of firefighters cannot be taken for granted and in this regard, the operational strategies deployed by the CoE were adequate and necessary to safeguard the safety of firefighters.
1.2 National norms and standards
With regard to national norms and standards for the provision of fire services, the South African National Standard (SANS) 10090: Community Protection Against Fire is the primary barometer utilised by most municipalities to measure the performance of fire services. The purpose of this standard is to provide advice on the measures that should be taken to ensure that fire services are efficient. It includes a schedule against which the performance potential of each aspect, as well as of the whole, of a fire service can be judged. A fire-risk rating based on this schedule will indicate the extent to which loss of life and property can be avoided in any particular given area. The SANS 10090 is based on the premise that successful control and extinguishing of fires depend on sufficient appliances responding with adequate manpower and arriving within a reasonable time. It is important to highlight that although most fire services comply with the requirements of this standard, it only becomes applicable once a municipality adopts it as its service delivery standard. The CoE has adopted this standard as its service delivery standard. From the report/ response received from CoE, it is clear that the City complied with the standard in its deployment of firefighters and resources to this incident. In terms of this standard, the weight of response to fires is as outlined below:

Dlomo, Ms BJ to ask the Ms. B.J Dlomo to ask the Minister of Sport and Recreation
1. What progress has her department made in establishing the two ministerial commissions that will: - (a) look at the violence in stadia; and b) address the problems in sports confederation; 2. on what date does she intend to brief the Portfolio Committee on Sport and Recreation regarding the progress?
Reply:
In response to question 1 (a) in relation to violence in stadia:
The former Minister of Sport and Recreation established the FNB Stadium Committee of Inquiry to investigate the facts and reasons that led to the death of two soccer fans and injury to others at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg. The FNB Committee of Inquiry was subsequently withdrawn as a result of legal technicalities, hence the current Minister of Sport and Recreation decided to approach the President of the Republic to request his Excellency to consider appointing a fully ledged Commission of Inquiry to investigate the tendency to perpetuate violence in stadia in the Republic by soccer fans inclusive of any other violence in sport (e.g. the violence at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria and more recently at the Moses Mabida in Durban, etc.). The President of the Republic has recently referred the request of the Department to establish a Commission of Inquiry to the Department of Justice and Correctional Services. SubsequenUy a meeting was held between the Ministries of Justice and Sport and Recreation to clarify issues and to seek solutions in the above regard.
In In response to question 1(b) in relation to addressing the problems in the sports confederation:
The SASCOC Committee of Inquiry has already finalised its extensive report (more than 140 pages) with regard to the Sports Confederation and has recently submitted its findings, recommendations and observations inclusive of its Executive Summary to the Minister for her perusal and consideration via the normal Departmental channels. The Minister has already perused the report and concurred wholeheartedly the proposed the recommendations as proposed by the SASCOC Committee of Inquiry.
Subsequently the Minister has submitted the report and its Summary to -
• SASCOC;
• the International Olympic Committee ("IOC");
• the International Paralympic Committee ("IPC");
• Mr. TUBBY REDDY
for their respective written responses. All their responses are currently being assimilated so as to put the Minister in a favourable position to apply her mind fully insofar as decisions and actions to be considered on the way forward before releasing the said report.
In response to question 2 in relation to what date does she intend to brief the Portfolio Committee on Sport and Recreation regarding the progress:
In relation to stadia violence, the Minister will brief the Portfolio Committee on Sport and Recreation on the progress with regard to the request to the President of Republic for appointing a formal Commission of Inquiry as and when the issues to be clarified and resolved between the Ministries of Justice and Sport and Recreation as referred to earlier have been finalized.
Moreover, the Minister intends to update the Portfolio Committee on Sport and Recreation regarding the progress in relation to SASCOC Committee of Inquiry in December after applying her mind to the responses that she has now received from SASCOC, the IOC, the IPC and Mr. TUBBY REDDY in relation to the findings, recommendations and observations as proposed by the Committee.

Reply:
- The Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP) seeks to ensure a restructuring of the economy to set it on a more value-adding, labour-intensive and environmentally sustainable growth path. Since 1 January 2010, the South African manufacturing sector performed as follows compared to developing and developed countries:

2. (a) During the period 2011 to 2013 South Africa’s manufacturing sector grew at a faster pace compared to the manufacturing sectors of the developed and developing countries. From 2014 onwards our manufacturing sector has broadly mirrored the trend exhibited by the developed and developing countries which indicate periods of expansions and contractions.
(b) The past decade of implementing the Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP) needs to be understood in relation to the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 and the extended economic crisis which flowed in its wake. The ensuing slump in global demand for many of South Africa commodities resulted in a slowing down of exports and investment in South Africa. In addition, surplus global capacity in the production of many key commodities has created huge challenges for South African manufacturing.
These factors combined with significant domestic economic shocks including, sharply rising and bunched up administered prices, deterioration in basic economic service delivery by key state owned companies and economic infrastructure constraints, skills deficit and mismatches negatively impacted the domestic economy and the re- industrialisation effort through IPAP.
(c ) The Black Industrialist Scheme has been established to facilitate the inclusion and participation of black industrialists in the South African economy. The intention of the Scheme is to contribute towards shifting the demographic composition of South Africa’s industrial sector and to engage under-utilised sources of jobs, revenue, taxes and innovation through the Black Industrialist Scheme.
(d) The Scheme has (i) added additional production capacity to the manufacturing sector across a range of IPAP priority sectors, (ii) become more competitive through technology driven production processes and innovations, (iii) grow through projected investments of R8.6 billion in 2016/17 and 2017/18 and (iv) created 9 138 projected new job opportunities and helped to sustain 6 373 jobs during the same period.
3. The Department conducts programmatic impact assessments for example, periodic review of incentive programmes is undertaken to assess whether their objectives and outcomes are being realised and that review informs their future development. It is important to note that, the deployed interventions to change the growth trajectory rest on sound economic research and analysis including with respect to the identification of market failures and the most appropriate measures required to address these. Inherent in this process is a review of interventions deployed to assess their impact and effectiveness. Anecdotal evidence points to the fact that government’s resolute counter-cyclical industrialisation efforts arrested the scale of job losses, preventing potentially catastrophic full-scale deindustrialisation.
The following successes have been registered but they do not represent an exhaustive list of all the outcomes and progress platforms built in the course of the previous years. They serve as a snapshot of a much more substantive body of work which underpins these achievements, based on a set of critical and indispensable principles for industrial policy and industrial development:
- Manufacturing value-added in real terms grew from R338 billion in 2009 to R384 billion in 2017;
- Since 2007/08 manufactured exports grew four-fold compared to imports that have doubled. Manufactured exports were dominated by metals, metal products and machinery and equipment;
- Manufactured exports have continued to diversify and have also been bolstered by robust growth in manufactured exports to Africa;
- In the automotive sector exports have more than doubled over the last decade and the sector has attracted R45 billion in investment by the majority of the leading global automotive manufacturers; and
- The Clothing and Textile Competitiveness Programme approved R5.1 billion to manufacturers in the sector and disbursed R4.2 billion to recipients of the incentive. A very significant turn-around in the fortunes of the Clothing, Textile, Leather and Footwear industry has been achieved, bringing relief to a sector which was in deep distress. Not only has the tide been turned with respect to factory closures and lay-offs; gains have been registered in recapturing domestic market share and developing close working relationships between government, manufacturers and domestic retailers. A modest increase in exports has also been achieved; most notably in the footwear sector.
4. The Department of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation (DPME) in the Presidency is tasked with reviewing government’s plans and policies as a whole in order to improve service delivery, outcomes and impact on society. Thus the need to amend or replace any policy will be informed by the monitoring and evaluation processes of DPME as they are constitutionally mandated to monitor, evaluate and report on the implementation of government priorities in line with the National Development Plan.

(b) For police services to effectively fight crime, the United Nations (UN) Office on Drugs and Crime prescribe a minimum police strength of one police officer to 220 people. However, it needs to be mentioned that the staffing requirement for each police station is determined by taking a number of variables into account, including, inter alia, the levels of crime, existing infrastructure, geographic terrain, resident population, population influxes, etc. The comparison of staffing levels with only one variable does not necessarily provide an indication of the appropriateness of the aTTocated staffing levels.

Ntlangwini, Ms EN to ask the Minister of Trade and Industry

Tarabella - Marchesi, Ms NI to ask the Minister of Basic Education
With regard to her department’s presentation to the Portfolio Committee on Basic Education on 28 August 2018, in which the combined results of the 2017 National Senior Certificate examinations and their associated supplementary exams were presented, what is (a) the reason for the 0,1% decline in the Eastern Cape’s pass rate after the addition of the supplementary results and (b) being done to address the decline?
Reply:
a) With the combination of the November 2017 and Supplementary 2018, it is expected that the combined results will be higher in numbers and percentage. However, it needs to be noted that the combined results includes all outstanding marks that would have been added between the official release of results on 5 January 2018 and the final combined results released on 7 May 2018. In the case of the Eastern Cape, 2 544 more candidates were added to the number who wrote, compared to the other PEDs, where the additions were less than 1 000. This higher number of additional candidates added to the number of candidates that wrote in the Eastern Cape, who in the main failed the examination, and this caused the final combined percentage in the Eastern Cape to be lower, despite the increase in the numbers that achieved.
b) The province has intensified the provision of additional support over and above the normal teaching and learning, as part of their efforts to improve learning outcomes. Below follows a summary of the interventions undertaken, both for teachers and learners to support the Class of 2018:
- Mediation of 2017 Chief Markers and diagnostic reports per subject
- Tracking learner performance ;
- SBA Support;
- Common tasks;
- Holiday extra classes/camps;
- Weekend classes;
- Professional development forums or teacher support;
- Provision of additional LTSM;
- Provision of Radio lessons and Telematics Broadcast.

Makeleni, Ms P to ask the Minister of Basic Education
With reference to her reply to question 983 on 18 May 2017, how did each province perform in the 2017 academic year according to each of the seven criteria contained in the Inclusive Basket of Criteria?
Reply:
The inclusive basket of performance indicators is a more integrated approach to reporting that reflects the key indicators of learner performance. The key indicators together with their weighting are as follows:
(a) Overall pass percentage (35%)
b) Mathematics pass percentage (10%)
c) Physical Sciences pass percentage (10%)
d) Bachelor attainment percentage (15%)
e) Distinction percentage (10%)
f) Mathematics Participation Rate (10%)
g) Secondary Throughput rate (10%)
The above indicators are captured in a consolidated format which includes a weighting based on the importance attached to each of these indicators. A computation of the percentage obtained for each of these indicators at school, district, provincial and national level, is also available. This new approach to reporting on performance in the National Senior Certificate Examination is being piloted and is therefore not the official mechanism of reporting on provincial performance. This information will however be used to monitor performance of the System at the different levels.
The Table below shows the performance of each of the Provincial Education Departments (PED’s) in terms of the Inclusive Basket Criteria:
